rtificial Intelligence (AI) Assistant Tools Patent Examination Modernization (Patent AI) ACQ-26-1279

Provide access to an AI-powered patent examination assistant tool that conducts comprehensive prior art searches, automates claim mapping with a claim-to-citation chart supporting 35 U.S.C. 102, 103, and 112 analyses, and delivers documented quality metrics for validating search results and Office Actions. Access is provided through a fixed-price, non-competitive contract under a Blanket Purchase Agreement with the GSA MAS, awarded to Four Points Technology, LLC, for use with a tool developed by Google Cloud Platform and Patlytics, Inc. The vendor maintains SOC 2 Type II attestation and is positioned to achieve FedRAMP certification within the required timeframe.

Two awards were recorded on the same date: one with zero funded value and another for about $13.65 million, both to Four Points Technology, LLC. The tool is intended to modernize patent examination processes by enabling advanced prior art searching and rigorous 102/103/112 analyses, with a security and compliance posture including SOC 2 Type II and planned FedRAMP readiness.
